alt text: 18 of our 40 employees are located in the Philippines. Insanely competent, great judgement, and $5 per hour. If you run a small business and don't have overseas help you're at a disadvantage

Explain how $5/hr. is exploiting a Pilipino. I'll wait.

EDIT: I note there are no explanations. My wife says it's damned good pay back home. And for you economic geniuses, $5 there buys 2-4 times what it buys in America. $10-$20/hr. is exploitative? Beats American minimum wage by a long shot.

Anyway, we're retiring there. I'll live like a king on the little I've saved. Y'all keep paying 2-4x for the same loaf of bread and bottle of milk.

$5 an hour is an exploitative wage, it fundamentally does not matter the country we're talking about. And there are no explanations because you gave 0 effort except for inviting an argument and no one was in the mood.
